The Opportunities of Socialism

Suddenly, thirty years after the collapse of communism, with the USSR and its empire long buried in the dustbin of history, we're inundated with "True socialists" - the adorable Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the somewhat less fetching Andrés López-Obrador in Mexico.

Every single socialist state on record has been an absolute failure at providing the minimum level of subsistence, at the same time as the capitalist states were embarked on what Christopher Chantrill calls "The great enrichment".

Not a single socialist state can claim anything to match that.

It's a sign that American liberalism is dead. The New Socialism is the flipside of the #WalkAway movement.

Note how many of these candidates aren't actually "Democrats" at all, but in fact are denizens of odd little socialist cults strictly limited to academia and large urban areas.

The great hope of the socialist revolution is a waitress - and one notorious for stealing tips.

Socialism has been a curse on Western culture for over a century, kept alive by lust for power, backed by ignorance and wish-fulfillment.
